Default Re: Games you miss playing

The mans right, you young pups might not follow him, though.. Its not about the game, its about the experience playing. It could be anything, any group of people, any team or community. Any sport, martial art, race team, motorcycle club, or group of bar-flys.

I went into my favorite corner store about a year ago. I hadn't been there in about a year, since then. It was owned by this Italian family, they always a broad selection from many cases of wine, and this little deli where a little old lady that all the regulars called "mom" would make the best sandwiches you ever had. fresh sliced meat, sharp cheese, and a lot to choose from. When I showed up Last year, it had a new owner. He had pulled out the deli and only sold cheap wine. He told me there were some packaged sandwiches in the fridge, next to the bottled juice. It wasnt the same.

I remember walking in empty places where my friends and I used to congrigate, where I could find people on any given night to cause trouble with. I remember going back to old bars and finding all the regulars gone, and the grizzly old bartender replaced with some young girl with great tits, but that couldnt pour a drink to save her life.

some things do change forever, but you have to make new memories as you move on -- knowing that in time, those too will fade. all things die, its a part of living. you can keep a part of it alive as long as you carry it with you, and as long as you remember, theres a good chance that someone else does too. but things are never the same.
